COSTS A RIDING SCHOOL HAS ON TOP across the UK(anually):

Keep in mind, some riding centres are not licensed or insured (we are, always have been), we have to teach some 300 extra lessons (rough estimate) before that cost is even covered.

Licensing Fees, Insurance Fees, Staff Wages, Building Purchase / Rent / Morgage, Vehicle Purchase + Maintence and many more things which could add up to over £100,000 a year.

Please note all the above costs are averaged estimates at the time of print, the quantities of feed, bedding, periodbetween shoeings etc will vary between each individual horse or pony’s needs.

NOTE: Some of the Information provided above was quoted from a BHS leaflet, the costs involved vary considerably, but that should give you an idea of how much a single animal would cost you to keep somewhere.
